ELEMENTAL MAGICK – AIR

1- Make a list of the things which have the combined qualities of warmth and
moistness. Practice this for one week. Be sure to record the results each day in
your magickal diary.

2- Find a place where you can be alone, take a lounge chair along with you. Wear
as little clothing as you can (if possible, nudity is best), and sit or lie in
the chair. Begin pore breathing. This is started by doing the relaxation ritual.
Next, become very aware of your breath. Become aware of the slow in and out
motion of the physical air. Notice the way the air feels as it enters your body.
Now imagine that your body is nothing more then a huge breathing apparatus.
Imagine that every part of your body only has the function of breathing. You
should do this exercise daily for one week.

3- Spend a period of up to three minutes (no more), once a day, imagining that
you are the element Air. Feel the lightness, the giddiness, the warmth and
moisture of Air. Feel how physical things don’t seem to matter. Do this exercise
for only one week, NO MORE. If you wish to do it again, only do it once a month.

4- Once you have learned to “be Air”, the next step is to control the element
Air. Take a moment and imagine yourself to be Air. Bring the feeling from the
previous exercise into your consciousness. Next, hold your hands 9-12 inches
apart, palms facing each other. Imagine a bottle or box between your hands. Now,
as you exhale, visualize all of the Air element which is in you going out with
your breath and into the container between your hands. Three to five breaths
should be enough to fill it. Then, with three breaths, inhale it back into you
and go back to normal consciousness.

THE TEST
The next time you feel heavy, slow or lazy, do this exercise. If you feel
relaxed and refreshed, you have succeeded with the test AND with mastering the
element Air.
